finally....motion

Dear Applicant:

You've been selected as an alternate (not a real boy) EAP in Japan at Meiji Gakuin University Fall 2006. Our campus did not have as many guaranteed spaces as applicants, so some students were designated as alternates (failures). Your chance for eventual placement (is abysmal) depends on selected students' withdrawal.

Meh...I didn't want to go anyway! All those crazy cos-players, hentai-hito, and kireinaonna! (if you didn't understand all that, you don't want to). But...This is where I where I need to start moving again.

Being on campus from 8-5 isn't so bad anymore. Do some yoga, do some japanese, get some breakfast, read for a bit, homework, office hours, snack, computer lab, more class. I suppose the point of all this would be so that I could go home and relax; well, i haven't gotten to that point yet. One day.

Hmm...3 day weekend coming up. I want to: go home. I need to: work. sigh.

Hmm.... I'm considering applying for the Honors Thesis program. It's a year long (2 semester) program for seniors. It's basically just another class in one's schedule, except you meet with your faculty advisor (of whom you choose), read a lot, and write a lot. Requirements: 3.7 major gpa, 3.5 career gpa and all pre-requisites finished. Surprisingly, I'm elligible. (I just have to *stay* elligible at this point). However, this would mean foregoing Japan. I won't know about my Japan app for a while, but the more I bury myself in the work of two highly esteemed professors, the more I'd like to attempt an honors thesis with either of them. (And, i'd be done with my major, giving me the time to devote to such a feat). If I don't get into the Japanese Program (40-50% chance) I will definitely apply for the Honors. Other than that, I'm trying to adjust to 6 hour class days, and the 3 hours of reading that follows class. Thank god I have monday and...

Summing the Year Up

My contribution to the annual, office newsletter, cross-posted from my financial/work interpretation-of-the-world blog : Ordinary Lang uage Finance . Even in America, the land of the second chance, and of transcendentalist redeemers, the paradox inevitably arises: you cannot change the world (for example, a state of marriage [or conversely: an economy]) until the people in it change, and the people cannot change until the world changes. - Stanley Cavell I hadn't seen this passage since the middle-years of college (if you remember those days too, it was a different time back then--long before I personally came to an inkling's understanding of the power of tragedy, and the subsequent flow of change). During those shattering years, I questioned the purpose of many practices and sites of genius. I wondered why so many studied the tragic Greek plays, the tragic writings of Kafka, or the tragic films; I wondered why people didn't focus solely on the works of those who burned br...
